Word Of The Cross


1 Corinthians 1:17-18 ESV
17 For Christ did not send me to baptize but to preach the gospel, and not with words of eloquent wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.
18 For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

Amazing as it is, the gospel is simple in it's truth, but powerful and complete for salvation. How it is received is a simple way to tell in which direction a person is headed. 
Directions either way are given in His word if you want to be sure or change direction. There is a cross in the path of everyone's journey.
